text: The design of a hybrid circuit frequency compensation module for use with various infrared instrumentation systems is discussed. The design objective is to achieve essentially the same preamplifier response over a given range of frequencies both at high-level output and at low-level output, when operating at the same temperature as a cryogenic sensor (detector). The design procedure requires that the temperature and/or voltage variation of resistor values used in the module be either (a) measured directly or (b) extracted from comparison of measured and computer-generated frequency response curves. It is found that a computer-aided design procedure using iterative analysis with an ac network analysis program results in reduced design and development time. Also, this procedure leads to a better understanding of problems associated with cryogenic sensor-amplifier interfaces.


Uff da! | what does the expression mean? | Norway
Uff da! is a Norwegian interjection, often used to express sympathy. For example when a child falls over: Uff da! Slo du deg? - meaning Poor you! Did you hurt yourself?
LA Dahlmann | talk NORWAY
«Uff da!» - what does it actually mean? | Illustration: LA Dahlmann cc pdm.
«Uff da! Slo du deg nå, lille venn?»
Uff da!
Uff da! is usually said in a deep voice, and in a drawn-out and comforting way. But the response can also be quick and upbeat, if the damage done or the message received is not too bad. Then it works more as an encouragement. Below, see some examples of how the expression is used. There are several phrase-variations, mostly with a fairly similar meaning:
 - Uff a meg!
 - Uff a meg'en!
 - Au da!
 - Oi da!
 - Uff og uff!
 - Uff det var leit å høre!
 - Or simply just – Uff!
The expressions are informal, and usually only used when speaking to someone you know well – both grown-ups and children. However, it can also be used if a stranger tells you something that requires an immediate show of sympathy.
Example 1
The expression used in a conversation with a friend:
Person A | My father just called; he has been in a car accident!
Person B | Uff da! Is he OK?
Person A | He broke his arm.
Person B | Uff a meg! How terrible!
Example 2
The quick, encouraging and upbeat tone would be used if for example a child falls over but turns to you smiling: Uff da! Up you go!
Example 3
The expression can also be used in a more sarcastic context and tone. For example, in a conversation with a friend who earns twice as much as you do:
Person A | I am furious! I only got a 3% pay rise this year!
Person B | Uff da! How terrible for you.
Many descendants of Norwegian emigrants to North America, several generations down the line, still hold on to this somewhat peculiar expression.

My Norwegian heritage
Here is a collection of some wonderful vintage photos, showing a handful of Norwegians and their lives.
In the old farming society, nature dictated the flow of the working year. And farmworkers could only leave their jobs on 2 specific days during the year.
For many, it may come as a surprise that the history of rose painting and its place in Norwegian folk art is not as old as one might think.
Uekte and ekte are Norwegian adjectives that in one context means illegitimate and legitimate - as in a child born outside or inside a marriage.
To make sure he could tide the animals over the long and cold winter, the historical Norwegian farmer utilised all available resources.
The Heddal stave church - stavkirke - is Norway's largest remaining building of its kind. It is a woodwork masterpiece, with a history that stretches back more than 800 years.
Per O. Rød wrote the history of the Stornæve farm and its inhabitants back in 1968. Decades earlier, several children of Stornæve had emigrated to the US.
The old Norwegian farming society was a self-sufficient and balanced world. Coins and notes were all but an alien concept.
In 1942, Hans Hyldbakk wrote the history of the local cotter's holdings in Surnadal, Nordmøre, Norway. The book was updated in 1966.
The Fjord horse is one of today's oldest and purest horse breeds. Its historical habitat is Norway's western coast, with its deep fjords and steep mountainsides.
The Norwegian landscape is wild and beautiful. And it is a lot more than just fjords and mountains.
The old Norwegian farm needed hundreds of litres of water every single day: for food-making, cleaning, and human and animal consumption.
Myrmelk is a Norwegian noun that means milk conserved in a container buried in a mountain peat bog, left there for herders or others to drink at a later stage.

Estonia studies mobile geolocation data to analyse movements
Estonia's Government Crisis Commission has instructed the state statistical office, Statistics Estonia, to use mobile geolocation data from companies such as Telia, Elisa, and Tele 2 in order to study people's movements to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Statistics Estonia hoped to launch the project during the week of March 24, 2020. Mart Mägi, the director general of Statistics Estonia, said the intention was to analyse people's movements before and after emergency measures were implemented, and that, if the telcos agreed it was feasible, data processing would take place only within Statistics Estonia's secure environment. The data protection inspectorate has agreed that this tracking is legitimate as long as the data is not personalised and it is used only for the purpose of providing generalised results.

I'm facing problem in adding a drawable object to a Parcel object, in order to send an object from one activity to another activity.
There are methods like writeString(String) to add strings to a Parcel object. But do not know how to add a Drawable to the Parcel object.

You cannot add a Drawable to a Parcel, as Drawable does not implement the Parcelable interface. Certain types of Drawable might implement Parcelable, but I am not aware of any.
You can put in the Parcel some identifier (e.g., drawable resource ID) and have the recipient obtain the Drawable on its own.
share|improve this answer
I think you can try wrapping the Drawable inside an object that implements Parcelable.
share|improve this answer
You can do that using Bitmap and BitmapDrawable.
Let's say you have a Drawable called drawable and a Parcel (in which the object should be written) called parcel.
To write a Drawable into a Parceable:
if ( drawable!= null ) {
 Bitmap bitmap = (Bitmap) ((BitmapDrawable) drawable).getBitmap();
 parcel.writeParcelable(bitmap, flags);
else {
 parcel.writeParcelable(null, flags);
To read the Drawable from the Parceable:
Bitmap bitmap = (Bitmap) in.readParcelable(getClass().getClassLoader());
if ( bitmap!= null ) {
 drawable = new BitmapDrawable(bitmap);
else {
 drawable = null;
In particular, since the constructor BitmapDrawable (Bitmap bitmap) has been deprecated, you might want to use BitmapDrawable (Resources res, Bitmap bitmap) instead.
drawable = new BitmapDrawable(context.getResources(), bitmap);

How to Increase RevPAR: 3 Key Strategies for Hotels
Average daily rate (ADR) is an important metric to look at, but don't forget about Revenue per available room (RevPAR). When you think about how to increase RevPAR, you can also solve problems with hotel income revenue in general. Since RevPAR considers only pure room revenue, and not ancillary income from services and amenities like food and beverage, this metric makes it easier for you to see the value of every room at your hotel. Certain upselling options, such as room upgrades, do impact RevPAR directly and should be looked at carefully when evaluating your numbers.
Why You Should Focus on an Increase in RevPAR
RevPAR is one of the most critical factors in building positive hotel revenue. When you understand the power of RevPAR, you can price your rooms more effectively and send out better room upgrade offers. RevPAR is a significant metric that all hoteliers should be using to track business. To boost profit, you need to increase RevPAR.
How do you measure hotel RevPAR?
General and revenue managers calculate RevPAR daily, monthly, or yearly. There are two commonly used formulas to do so: Rooms revenue/available rooms or Average daily rate x occupancy rate.
Focusing on 100% occupancy rate and ignoring the average daily rate is a bad idea. Rather, hotel managers should determine what profit they wish to make from their rooms, and then identify projected RevPAR and analyze room pricing in consideration of RevPAR. When you look at RevPAR as an indicator of your business' success or weakness, you can then plan a strategy for your room rates and room upsell options that would bring in a higher profit. Increased occupancy and good RevPAR indicate your hotel is doing great.
Options to Increase RevPAR
How, specifically, do you increase RevPAR? There are many ways to increase RevPAR and notice an immediate effect.
1. Implement smart revenue management. Selling the right rooms to the right guests, at the right time and the right price is smart revenue management and a good strategy for increasing RevPAR. Hotel revenue management is not only about setting prices as supply and demand dictates. It also means adopting technology tools that allow you to manage occupancy-smart pricing, and smart upselling, on their own. With intelligent revenue management tools, such as ROOMDEX Upgrade Optimizer, you just categorize occupancy into segments and then price each segment. You allow Upgrade Optimizer to intelligently take care of pricing changes for upgrades based on varying occupancy.
2. Consider your pricing strategies. RevPAR and Average Daily Rate are intertwined, so if you increase ADR, you also increase RevPAR. Hoteliers need to put varying pricing strategies into place for low and peak seasons, as well as for weekdays and weekends. Employing varying room rates for specific occupancy segments and room types is effective too, such as for business or leisure guests, and families. ROOMDEX Upgrade Optimizer lets you program varying prices for specific room types that you offer pre-arrival after a reservation has been made. This is a high-impact way to capture additional revenue to boost ADR and RevPAR.
3. Balance occupancy percentage and ADR. RevPAR depends both on occupancy and Average Daily Rate. They work in sync, so try not to aim for 100% occupancy to the detriment of ADR. Sometimes, you can play around with ADR to get more revenue than you would if you had 100% occupancy at a reduced rate. Again, ROOMDEX Upgrade Optimizer is designed to get you the highest yield per fulfilled room stay, with features like room type upselling.
There are several other ways to increase RevPAR, including capturing a greater percentage of your reservations through direct bookings. You should also pay attention to cancellation rate reduction and focus on persona marketing. Understanding how all of these factors work together is the key to boosting overall income and beating the competition.

Lochnell pupils on their bikes to officially open new cycle path
A NEW cycle path between the Sea Life Centre in Barcaldine and Ferlochan was officially opened recently by Lochnell Primary School pupils.
The three-mile path forms part of the National Cycle Network Route 78, the Caledonia Way, which stretches from Campbeltown to Inverness.
The path was constructed by the Scottish Government, in partnership with Argyll and Bute Council and Sustrans Scotland, a charity which encourages people to walk, cycle and use public transport to help both their health and the environment. Deputy director of Sustrans Scotland Daisy Narayanan, who attended the opening, said: ' We're delighted to launch this great new section of route today and to have the opportunity to thank the local communities who have been so supportive throughout its construction.
'The project is the result of years of partnership working between Sustrans Scotland, Transport Scotland, Argyll and Bute Council and, crucially, local people. It's great to see that it's already being well used by visitors and locals.' Elaine Rob- ertson, councillor for Oban North and Lorn, has been supporting the creation of the Caledonia Way for the past 12 years.
She said: 'The route connects our communities in a sustainable way. It's allowing children to get to school safely, and it's well used by families out walking, people on horses, and local residents cycling between local villages. It's wonderful to see how it's progressed in recent years and I'm delighted that it's been so warmly welcomed by local people and community councils.'
PEDAL POWER: Lochnell Primary School pupils, Daisy Navayanan and Elaine Robertson open the new cycle route next to
the Sealife Centre.

Identity Vault
Identity Vault is an all-in-one frontend identity management system that combines security best practices and the latest in biometric authentication options for Ionic apps running on iOS and Android.
Don't have an Identity Vault subscription? Try it free now.
The Vault manages secure user identity and session tokens, ensuring sensitive data is encrypted at rest, stored only in secure locations on the device, and unlocked only with biometric identity (TouchID/FaceID). Always-on Session Management safeguards data even when not using your app, with background screen protection for sensitive data and apps, and automatic logout based on inactivity time.
Identity Vault is built and supported by the Ionic's native mobile experts and includes ongoing updates and maintenance, including new API features, patches, updates, and compatibility upgrades for new iOS & Android releases.
Why Identity Vault?#
Many frontend authentication workflows use unsecure practices like storing tokens unencrypted or using weak authentication logic that is easily compromised. In the past, Ionic developers have resorted to combining third party Cordova plugins, often resulting in insecure setups due to the lack of correct implementation of biometric and at-rest encryption strategies.
Common security mistakes include:
 - Not implementing Apple and Google's mobile security best practices. Guidelines often change with each major operating system release.
 - Combining disparate Cordova plugins together. While the code is open source, it's challenging to know if the latest security best practices are in place, and whether the plugin developer will keep them up to date.
 - Leaking data. Storing tokens unencrypted in localstorage is common but data is easily accessible.
 - Not clearing tokens after user inactivity or when new fingerprints are added. Removing tokens protects users in the event of a lost or stolen device.
 - Displaying data when app is in the background. Highly sensitive data should be protected from shoulder surfing, especially if the mobile app is commonly used in public places.
Identity Vault handles all of the above and more, reducing your team's development time from weeks to minutes while eliminating the need to learn complex native APIs. Instead, they can focus on delivering business critical app features.
How It Works#
Among Identity Vault's many features is the secure management of user identity and session tokens. The Vault ensures sensitive data is encrypted at rest, stored only in secure locations on the device, and unlocked only with biometric identity (TouchID/FaceID). Here's how it works in practice, in a typical authentication workflow.
An app user logs into your mobile app and the backend authentication system verifies their credentials. If valid, the system sends back a session token representing the user's identity and permissions. Since this token represents the ability to make changes on behalf of the user, it's crucial to secure it so that malicious persons or apps cannot access it.
Identity Vault workflow
Your app must store the token somewhere so the user can continue to use it over time, as the token will be sent back to your server to retrieve and modify data at any time. This is where Identity Vault comes in. The token is encrypted and stored at-rest securely on a physical hardware chip - the Secure Enclave on iOS devices. The enclave is isolated from all other system components in order to ensure sensitive user data remains secure.
Later, when an attempt is made to retrieve the user token, the app prompts the user to authenticate using Touch ID or Face ID. After verification, it's permitted to get the token from the Secure Enclave and use it for subsequent data requests.
In addition to secure identity management, Identity Vault fully configurable session management. While in use, the auth tokens will be in-memory of your app, so for an additional layer of protection, the Vault will automatically lock based on the specified inactivity time. It also comes with screen protection, hiding your app's data when put into the background. On iOS, it uses your app's splash screen and the native hide system on Android. Finally, you can use Identity Vault's user service to add the auth token to every backend system request using a HTTP interceptor.
Reference Apps#
While implementing Idenitity Vault, refer to these reference apps for examples showcasing all available security features.

text: A series-array voltage standard containing 2,076 Josephson junctions has been operated in a liquid helium bath maintained within a refrigerated Dewar over the temperature range 1.56K ≤ T ≤ 4.54K. No systematic variation in the array voltage near 1.018V with temperature was detected over this entire range, indicating that any temperature coefficient of the array voltage must be less than 2×10-8 V/K. The critical current and gap energy of the weakest junction within the array in the absence of millimeter wave power were measured as a function of temperature over this same range. The noise sensitivity of the array was observed to change abruptly but by a small amount as the helium bath was pumped superfluid. Voltage calibrations were unaffected by the bath's superfluid transition.

Development History Of The Tiwi Geothermal Field, Philippines
Journal Article: Development History Of The Tiwi Geothermal Field, Philippines
AbstractCommercial production of electricity from the Tiwi geothermal system began in 1979. In 1982, Tiwi became the world's first water-dominated system to produce more than 160 MWe. Today the field supplies about 11% of Luzon's electricity. Initially, the reservoir was single-phase liquid with a small, shallow steam zone on the east side. Temperature reversals in the first wells showed the east to be an outflow zone. As production began, reservoir pressure declined, two-phase conditions developed, and groundwater entered the reservoir from the east. As many production wells cooled, brine production increased and generation decreased from about 280 MWe in 1983 to about 190 MWe in 1986. Improvements to surface facilities and new wells drilled farther west raised generation to about 280 MWe by mid-1993. Separated brine was first injected into the reservoir, but this lowered steam production; injection is now outside the field.

How do I use Person Code to limit access to a survey?
You can a limit who is able to respond to a survey by setting a person code within a survey. Person code is simply set by setting the variable p= on the URL of a survey. So an example survey URL might be like
You substitute you own value for [p_value], so the actual link might look something like this.
The actual value you use after the p= does not matter. You can use the p code to match survey responses to customer ids in other systems.
SurveyTown treats the "p" variable in a couple special ways.
- SurveyTown will store the value automatically with the survey response.
- If you check to limit taking of surveys by person code, SurveyTown will look to see if there is a response with that personcode already attached to that survey it will block the respondent from taking the survey again.
In sum, by adding a p= variable onto the end of your survey URLs you can match your survey responses to customers and limit the ability for customers to take a survey more than one time.

UNIX Resources monitor
The UNIX Resources monitor shows the UNIX resources measured during the test run. This graph helps you determine the impact of Vuser load on the various system resources.
Configure the UNIX monitoring environment
This task describes how to configure the UNIX environment before setting up the UNIX monitor. The monitor can be configured with rstatd Daemon, or when non-mandatory credentials fields are supplied, it can be configured to access UNIX resources via the SSH protocol.
Configure the UNIX monitoring environment to allow access via the SSH protocol
 1. Make sure that authentication by password is enabled on your UNIX machine:
 1. Open /etc/ssh/sshd_config.
 2. Find the line that defines the password authentication property, and enable it.
 For example: PasswordAuthentication yes
 If this property is not defined, add it.
 3. Save the file and restart the sshd service.
 2. Verify that the following commands run on the UNIX machine without errors:
 /bin/cat /proc/stat| /bin/grep cpu | /usr/bin/head -n 1
 /bin/cat /proc/stat | /bin/grep btime
 /bin/cat /proc/uptime
 /bin/cat /proc/stat | /bin/grep ctxt
 /bin/cat /proc/vmstat | /bin/grep pgpgin -A 3
 /bin/cat /proc/loadavg
 /bin/cat /proc/net/dev | /usr/bin/head -n3 | /usr/bin/tail -n1
 /bin/cat /proc/stat | /bin/grep intr | /usr/bin/awk '{print $2}'
 /bin/cat /proc/meminfo | /bin/grep MemTotal -A 2
 3. Configure the monitor measurements as described in Set up the UNIX Resources monitor.
Configure the UNIX monitoring environment with rstatd Daemon
 1. Verify whether the rstatd daemon is already configured
 The rstatd daemon might already be configured, because when a machine receives an rstatd request, the inetd on that machine automatically activates the rstatd.
 - The rup command reports various machine statistics, including rstatd configuration. Run the following command on the UNIX machine to view the machine statistics:
 - >rup host
 - You can also use lr_host_monitor and see if it returns any relevant statistics.
 - If the command returns meaningful statistics, the rstatd daemon is already configured and activated. If not, or if you receive an error message, the rstatd daemon is not configured.
 2. Configure the rstatd daemon
 If the rstatd daemon is not yet configured, follow these steps to configure it:
 1. On the UNIX machine, run the command: su root
 2. Go to /etc/inetd.conf and look for the rstatd row (it begins with the word rstatd). If it is commented out (with a #), remove the comment directive, and save the file.
 3. From the command line, run:
 4. kill -1 inet_pid
 where inet_pid is the pid of the inetd process. This instructs the inetd to rescan the /etc/inetd.conf file and register all daemons which are uncommented, including the rstatd daemon.
 5. Run rup again.
 If the command still does not indicate that the rstatd daemon is configured, contact your system administrator.
 3. Configure the monitor for a UNIX machine over a firewall (optional)
 To monitor a UNIX machine over a firewall, you must run a UNIX utility called rpcinfo and identify the rstatd's port number.
 Run rpcinfo -p <hostname>. You will receive a list of all RPC servers registered in the host's portmapper, along with the port number. This list will not change until rstatd is stopped and rerun.
 Some firewalls allow you to open an RPC program number instead of a port. In such cases, open program 100001. If are prompted to include a version number, specify versions 3 and 4.
 4. Configure the monitor measurements as described in Set up the UNIX Resources monitor.
Back to top
Set up the UNIX Resources monitor
This task describes how to set up the UNIX Resources monitor.
 1. Prerequisites
 If your monitor accesses a server outside of your internal network, you may need to set up a web proxy to collect data from it. For details, see Use a proxy server.
 2. Select a resources folder.
 Select a resources folder for the monitor profile in the resources tree, or create a new folder as follows:
 1. In LoadRunner Enterprise, click Open the navigation toolbar and select Monitors (under Assets).
 2. Click New Folder and enter a name for the monitor resources folder.
 3. Create a monitor profile.
 1. Click New Monitor Profile, and make sure Monitor Profile is selected.
 2. Enter a name and optional description for the monitor profile, and click Save. An empty monitor profile is added to the selected resources folder.
 3. Select the monitor profile you just added and click Add Monitor.
 1. Select the UNIX Resources monitor type and click Next.
 2. Enter the server details:
 UI Elements
 Description
 Server
 The name or IP address of the server whose resources you want to monitor.
 User Name
 Provide the monitored server's user name if you want to use the SSH protocol to connect to the resource. Otherwise, if left empty, rstatd is required to run the monitor.
 Password
 Provide the monitored server's password if you want to use the SSH protocol to connect to the resource. Otherwise, if left empty, rstatd is required to run the monitor.
 3. Click Get Counters to display a list of available metrics and counters.
 Select the measurements that you want to monitor, and then click to add the counters to the Selected Counters table.
 The following default measurements are available for the UNIX machine:

Nepal's First Aircraft Flies
Eight engineering students of the Pulchowk Engineering Campus Institute of Engineering in Kathmandu formed Danfe Aircraft Fabrication Group and used $12,500 worth of locally available materials (plus a Rotax) to build Nepal's first aircraft, dubbed Danfe. The two-seat aircraft -- Nepal's first aircraft -- has a maximum takeoff weight of 880 pounds and successfully flew Saturday at Pokhara city. Danfe most closely resembles an ultralight trike, is powered by a 65-hp Rotax 582 and was actually built last year based on two years of research and development as an academic project, but the aircraft only received permission to fly last week. Lacking local pilots, the group allowed a Russian pilot the honor of first flight. The ride reportedly lasted a little more than one minute and was witnessed by a crowd of onlookers that included the Minister of Science and Technology. After the flight, the minister declared that the government would cover research and design expenses, and would immediately create a fund for research and development in science and technology.

Definition of discus in English:
noun (plural discuses)
1A heavy thick-centred disc thrown by an athlete, in ancient Greek games or in modern field events.
- As far as performance goes, athletes are throwing the discus more than two times farther than the Greeks did, but records aren't falling as steadily as they used to.
- Now allegedly just as the discus left the athlete's hand, a sort of gale arose and blew it many more metres than was expected.
- Their goal was to empower them to run faster, jump higher, throw the discus and javelin farther, lift heavier weights, and excel in all power events.
2A small colourful South American freshwater fish with a rounded laterally compressed body, native to South America and popular in aquariums.
- Genus Symphysodon, family Cichlidae: several species
- Freshwater angelfish have extended dorsal and anal fins and discus fishes, have compressed, disc-like bodies.
- Don't place your discus aquarium near a door as all the movement will cause them stress.
- It has been said that the male discus fish will tend to have a less intense color and more pattern while the female tends to be more colorful but with lesser pattern.

In a previous JS Link / CSR post we covered how to handle what is displayed in a web part when there are no items to show. SharePoint's default message is an ambiguous:
"There are no items to show in this view of the [listname] list"
Not an awesome user experience. Something a little more contextually relevant might be more helpful to users – either in a simple list view, or in a more complicated solution.
A PowerApps Gallery control isn't any better – merely showing a blank record. The Data Table control, on the other hand, has a handy 'NoDataText' property that can be configured to display a message when the control is empty.
So, what do we do when using Gallery controls – until a 'NoDataText' property is added and/or the Data Table control allows for more configuration options? As is the answer with many things in PowerApps: We use a formula.
Using an appropriate text field control within a Gallery control, we can replace the Text property with a formula like the following:
If(CountRows([_List Name_])=0,"[_Put your message here_]", ThisItem.Title)
For a SharePoint list named: DefaultList you get the following:
If(CountRows(DefaultList)=0,"Nothing to see here", ThisItem.Title)
The 'CountRows' function as you might guess returns the number of rows in the list.
The 'If' function tells the control to set the displayed value of the control to "Nothing to see here" if the condition (there are 0 rows) evaluates to 'true'. If not, the value of the control is ThisItem.Title – the normal field value we would expect in the control. The text is only displayed when there are no items in the list.

PanelsConfigure value mappings
Configure value mappings
In addition to field overrides, value mapping is a technique that you can use to change the visual treatment of data that appears in a visualization.
Values mapped via value mappings bypass the unit formatting. This means that a text value mapped to a numerical value is not formatted using the configured unit.
Value mappings example
If value mappings are present in a panel, then Grafana displays a summary in the side pane of the panel editor.
Note: The new value mappings are not compatible with some visualizations, such as Graph (old), Text, and Heatmap.
Types of value mappings
Grafana supports the following value mappings:
 - Value: Maps text values to a color or different display text. For example, you can configure a value mapping so that all instances of the value 10 appear as Perfection! rather than the number.
 - Range: Maps numerical ranges to a display text and color. For example, if a value is within a certain range, you can configure a range value mapping to display Low or High rather than the number.
 - Regex: Maps regular expressions to replacement text and a color. For example, if a value is _URL_, you can configure a regex value mapping so that Grafana displays www and truncates the domain.
 - Special Maps special values like Null, NaN (not a number), and boolean values like true and false to a display text and color. For example, you can configure a special value mapping so that null values appear as N/A.
You can also use the dots on the left to drag and reorder value mappings in the list.
Examples
Refer to the following examples to learn more about value mapping.
Time series example

HCMC – After six long years of negotiations, Vietnam has clinched a deal to begin the formal export of fresh longan to Japan.
On January 3, Hoang Phat Fruit Co., Ltd, located in Long An Province, shipped 10 tons of fresh longan to Japan. This was the first time Vietnam had sent fresh longan to the Japanese market.
The batch of fresh longan was shipped to Japan by air.
After this shipment, the company will continue to export 70 to 100 tons of fresh longan monthly to Japan by sea and air.
Prior to the shipment, fresh longan was cold treated at a set temperature of 1.3 degrees Celsius for 13 days to eliminate potential pests, supervised by Japanese experts.
Vietnam has 80,000 hectares under longan cultivation, with annual output of 600,000 tons. However, only 2,000 hectares and three factories were granted growing area codes to export longan to Japan.
Given the situation, Vietnam's Plant Protection Department and the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development have joined hands to step up the granting of the growing area packaging area code for longan growers in accordance with food safety to increase longan exports to Japan.

Campbell Transit Station
Iowa State University, Ames, Iowa
Located in a 30-acre parking lot, the Campbell Transit Station is designed to serve the commuting needs of faculty and students. While programmatic requirements included: seating, wireless communication, restroom, and vending facilities, the station was designed to resist the effects of recurrent flooding through the use of cast-in-place concrete construction.
The undulating roof also participates in the ecology of the site by collecting and directing rainwater to a native grass rain garden. The result is a shelter that marks its place in the horizontal landscape by a parallel and undulating overhead plane–by the shadows it casts, wind it buffers and the precipitation it sheds.

Why would this inequality imply something of interest, if true? In short, what are your motivations for asking this? – Did Oct 29 '11 at 7:13
1 Answer 1
up vote 1 down vote accepted
Here is a real counterexample, as verified by mathematica: so we take the same discrete two point space as below, and let $f=(u_1,u_2), \hat{f} = (v_1,v_2), g = (a_1,a_2), \hat{g}=(b_1,b_2)$, with the relation that $x_1 + x_2 = 1$ where $x \in \{u,v,a,b\}$. So your claim becomes in this special case
$$ |\frac{u_1 a_1}{u_1 p_1 + u_2 a_2} - \frac{v_1 b_1}{v_1 b_1 + v_2 b_2}| + | \frac{u_2 a_2}{u_1 a_1 + u_2 a_2} - \frac{v_2 b_2}{v_1 b_1 + v_2 b_2}|$$ $$\le |u_1 - v_1| + |u_2 - v_2| + |a_1 - b_1| + |a_2 - b_2|$$
Now using the relation that if $x + y = 1$ and $w + z = 1$, then $|x - w| + |y - z| = 2 |x -w|$, we can simplify the above inequality to
$$ |\frac{u_1 a_1}{u_1 a_1 + u_2 a_2} - \frac{v_1 b_1}{v_1 b_1 + v_2 b_2}| \le |u_1 - v_1| + |a_1 - b_1| $$.
What I then did is to subtract the square of the right hand side from the square of the left hand side, and call the resulting function $h(u,v,a,b)$, where $x := x_1$ for $x \in \{u,v,a,b\}$. Then I did some brute force search of maximum and found the following point:
$$u=v =0.456239, a = 1/5, b = 1/2$$ If you plug it in to $h$ you should get $0.000652285 > 0$. So that means the left hand side is not always $\le$ the right hand side. Here are the mathematica code so that you can help me verify:
q[u1_, u2_, a1_, a2_, v1_, v2_, b1_, b2_] := (u1 a1/(u1 a1 + u2 a2) - v1 b1/(v1 b1 + v2 b2))^2 - ( (u1 - v1)^2 + (a1 - b1)^2 + 2 Abs[(u1 - v1) (a1 - b1)]);
h[u_, v_, a_, b_] := q[u, 1 - u, a, 1 - a, v, 1 - v, b, 1 - b];
h[0.456239, 0.456239, 2/3, 2/5]
= 0.000652285
Edit: below was my earlier false counterexample.
I believe it's false. Here is an argument. It suffices to consider discrete probability space, say the two point space $\Omega = \{ 0,1 \} $. Now let $f =(u_1,1-u_1)$ be the probability mass function, so that means $f(0) = u_1$ and $f(1) = 1-u_1$. and similarly $\hat{f} = (u_2,1-u_2)$. Also I will let $g = \hat{g} = (p, 1-p)$. Then $\|g - \hat{g}\|_1 = 0$, so your inequality amounts to
$ |\frac{p u_1}{p u_1 + (1-p)(1-u_1)} - \frac{p u_2}{pu_2 + (1-p)(1-u_2)}| \le |u_1 - u_2|$.
Now take $u_1 = 2/3$ and $u_2 = 1/3$, and let $ 1-p >> p$. Then you get a contradiction.
share|improve this answer
I don't think this counter example is true. The left hand side should be |P_1 - \hat{P}_1| + |P_2 - \hat{P}_2|, (P \propto fg not to confuse with your p) currently you are only considering the term |P_1 - \hat{P}_1|. Also the left hand side is 2|u_1 - u_2|. Moreover, when g is highly biased (p \to 0 in your example) then the right hand side of my inequality (||P - \hat{P}||_1) goes to zero so it's true. – Nima Oct 29 '11 at 3:42
Thanks for the counter example. I appreciate it. Do you think some inequality like that might be true perhaps with some prefactor? I want to somehow bound the tv distance of the product of some probability densities in terms of the individual tv distances – Nima Oct 29 '11 at 5:57
That's a good question. I have no intuitions whatsoever, just pure luck. Can you state the original problem you are trying to solve? My first impression was that the inequality does not scale appropriately on the two sides, which led to my disbelief. – John Jiang Oct 29 '11 at 6:01
I was trying to prove convergence of a low-complexity variant of belief propagation algorithm which we call it stochastic belief propagation. Belief propagation has various applications in signal and image processing, computer vision, etc. This statement or something like that would be helpful. Thanks anyway – Nima Oct 29 '11 at 21:14

In this work the effect of fat content on dough aeration during proving was investigated using dynamic dough density measurements. Doughs of three different fat levels (0%, 0.04% and 0.2% flour basis) were mixed under various pressures using a Tweedy mixer and proved at five different temperatures (30, 35, 40, 45 and 50 °C) in the dynamic dough density system. The dough expansion capacity and the time of the gas loss of each dough sample were measured and related to fat level, mixing pressure and proving temperature.
The time of gas loss decreased with increasing proving temperature for all fat levels, as expected due to increasing yeast activity and reduced carbon dioxide solubility. The final gas capacity of dough is affected by the mixing pressure and the temperature. Fat content had no significant effect on the time of the loss of gas retention or the dough's final expansion capacity. However, fat affected the pattern of gas loss towards the end of proving; thus in doughs with fat, the gas loss rate occurred smoothly and gradually, in contrast to the doughs with no fat that exhibited sudden gas loss. The findings demonstrated that the dynamic dough density method is a sensitive, straightforward technique for the investigation of factors affecting gas retention in bread doughs.

Prolongation of network lifetime is one of the most important issues of sensor networks. EEHF (Environmental Energy Harvesting Framework) is a framework that includes a data gathering scheme and estimates the energy gained from the environment by using the periodicity of environmental power. Thus, sensor nodes can use environmental energy efficiently and the network lifetime is extended. However, since the accuracy of the estimation depends on the length of the period, and the data gathering scheme used in EEHF does not take environmental energy into consideration, this method has room for improvement. In this paper, we propose a more accurate and adaptive energy estimation method that does not depend on the length of the period, and a data gathering scheme that is optimized for the environmental energy-based sensor network, in order to prolong the lifetime of environmental energy-based sensor networks.

During the variable spray process, the micro-flow control is often held back by such problems as low initial sensitivity, large inertia, large hysteresis, nonlinearity as well as the inevitable difficulties in controlling the size of the variable spray droplets. In this paper, a novel intelligent double closed-loop control with chaotic optimization and adaptive fuzzy logic is developed for a multi-sensor based variable spray system, where a Bang-Bang relay controller is used to speed up the system operation, and adaptive fuzzy nonlinear PID is employed to improve the accuracy and stability of the system. With the chaotic optimization of controller parameters, the system is globally optimized in the whole solution space. By applying the proposed double closed-loop control, the variable pressure control system includes the pressure system as the inner closed-loop and the spray volume system as the outer closed-loop. Thus, the maximum amount of spray droplets deposited on the plant surface may be achieved with the minimum medicine usage for plants. Multiple sensors (for example: three pressure sensors and two flow rate sensors) are employed to measure the system states. Simulation results show that the chaotic optimized controller has a rise time of 0.9 s, along with an adjustment time of 1.5 s and a maximum overshoot of 2.67% (in comparison using PID, the rise time is 2.2 s, the adjustment time is 5 s, and the maximum overshoot is 6.0%). The optimized controller parameters are programmed into the hardware to control the established variable spray system. The experimental results show that the optimal spray pressure of the spray system is approximately 0.3 MPa, and the flow rate is approximately 0.08 m3
/h. The effective droplet rate is 89.4%, in comparison to 81.3% using the conventional PID control. The proposed chaotically optimized composite controller significantly improved the dynamic performance of the control system, and satisfactory control results are achieved.

The paper presents the simulation analysis and comparison of two commercially available shipboard cylindrical trihedral radar reflectors. The reports found in literature indicate that this type of radar reflector provides very poor radar visibility. Therefore, detailed analysis was carried out taking into account various heeling angles of radar reflectors and various azimuth angles of incident plane wave for standard marine navigational radar frequencies in S-band and X-band. Simulations were performed using FEKO software suite. The simulation results show that the backscatter radar cross section (RCS) of these radars is insufficient for reliable performance.

DataPower: Flushing Stylesheet Cache.
Summary: Why aren't my changes to the stylesheets being picked up by DataPower? Learn about the stylesheet cache in DataPower and what you should do to refresh the cache.
DataPower appliances maintain a cache of the stylesheets that are being used on the appliance for performance reasons. "Although the cache is configurable, disabling the cache might degrade performance. DataPower caches compiled stylesheets and if the cache is disabled the stylesheets will have to be compiled every time they are used." - [1]
Ever get into a situation where you have made a change on an imported/included stylesheet on DataPower and when the stylesheet was run, you did not see the changes you made being reflected in the results?
The reason is that DataPower fetches all the content from top level stylesheet with any imported and included stylesheets and after compilation stores it in the cache as one single compiled stylesheet. If you make changes to one of the imported/included stylesheets, DataPower does not detect the change and the recompilation and refreshing the same in the cache is not triggered.
In such scenarios, for the changes to be reflected, you could do two things
 1. You could flush the stylesheet cache. One way of doing this would be to use the WebGUI administrative interface. In the GUI select objects/XML Processing/XML Manager. Select the respective xml manager and to the top right corner you should see option called "Flush Stylesheet Cache".
 2. DataPower: Flush Stylesheet Cache
 3. You could introduce an empty line in the top level xslt and save it. This will trigger recompilation of that top level stylesheet effectively recompiling the imported/included stylesheets also.
 "At compile time all imported and included stylesheets are fetched and the complete compiled top level stylesheet is then cached. You can't see the imports and includes but they are all there under the top stylesheet." – [2]
"Disabling the cache can be performance concern and might not be your goal. When style sheets are not cached, an XSLT compilation is run on every single transaction.
If you need to disable stylesheet caching, create a separate XML Manager for the particular service wherestylesheet caching is not required.
Do not disable stylesheet caching for a widely used XML Manager. For example, do not disable caching on the default XML Manager." – [1]

Compression and End-Gas Temperatures from Iodine Absorption Spectra
THIS paper discusses a method of measuring compression temperature by means of the absorption of light. An optical-electronic system measures the change in color of a trace of iodine gas that has been added to the intake mixture. From these measurements the temperature of the iodine and by inference, the temperature of the gases, is determined. The apparatus used is described briefly and the test results obtained in measuring compression and end-gas temperatures in a spark-ignition engine are also presented.

The 2,000-year-old Iron Age burnishing stone is an important part of Archaeology Scotland's teaching kit.
The 7cm-long object, which is said to be the perfect size to have slipped into a child's pocket, went missing at the Dundee Flower and Food Festival on September 6.
Archaeology Scotland believe it may have been picked up by one of the many children who were using the Iron Age investigations kit to learn about archaeology with the Living Lomonds Landscape Partnership at the festival.
A spokeswoman for Archaeology Scotland said: "The burnishing stone…

VisualSVN set-up guide
Installing the VisualSVN server
STEP 1: Download the standard edition of VisualSVN server from _URL_ Its free and it is supported by articy:draft
STEP 2: Install it on any Windows PC that can be reached from all computers running articy:draft. We recommend the same machine that also runs the articy:server.
STEP 3: Choose VisualSVN Server and Management Console 1
STEP 4: Choose a server port and write it down. You need this port number later when creating or importing an articy:draft project. If the port is already in use by another program or service, just pick another one from the drop down list.
STEP 5: Select a proper path for Repositories 1. This is the location where the data files are stored. It should be on a local drive of the machine. Do not use mapped or network drives!
STEP 6: Choose Use Windows authentication 2
Step 21 deals with how to handle Subversion authentication.
STEP 7: Open the VisualSVN Server Manager
STEP 8: Copy the Server URL of the VisualSVN Server into the clipboard or write the URL down. In the screenshot below the highlighted server URL is _URL_ 1. You need this URL later when creating or importing an articy:draft project.
STEP 9: Create a new repository by right-clicking Repositories 2 in the tree view on the left hand side and choose Create New Repository. A dialog box asks for a pository name. Choose any name (e.g. ArticyProjects). You also need this repository name for creating/importing projects so write it down too!
Create a new articy multi-user project
STEP 10: Start articy:draft
STEP 11: Connect to articy:server
STEP 12: Login with your articy user credentials as they were created by the articy:server admin
STEP 13: Click button Create new project on the bottom of the projects list
STEP 14: Switch to the Source control page of the create new project assistant.
STEP 15: Change source control type from Perforce provider 1 to Subversion 1.6/1.7
STEP 16: Enter https://MyServerURL:MyPort/svn/MyRepositoryName in the field Repository-URL (internal) 2
- "MyServerURL" is the server name you copied in step 8
- "MyPort" is the port number you copied in step 4
- "MyRepositoryName" is the name you have entered in step 9
STEP 17: In this example the full repository URL is _URL_
STEP 18: Enter any name in the field Repository-path 3. While you are free to choose any name, it makes sense to use the same name as the articy project itself for a better allocation. In this example the name choosen is MyProject.
STEP 19: Fill-out the remaining project details and click the Finish button 4.
STEP 20: Finally you are asked to authenticate with the SVN server.
STEP 21: As you have chosen Use Windows authentication in step 6, this is the same user account you use when starting Windows. Enter your username and password and confirm. If Windows authentication is not working for some reasons, you might want to change the authentication type of VisualSVN to Subversion authentication.
In order to do this,
- Open the VisualSVN Server Manager like shown in step 7
- Click on the link Configure authentication options... in the right side of the VisualSVN Server Manager window
- Switch to Use Subversion authentication 1 and confirm by pressing OK
- Click on the link Create new user... and fill out user name and password. Confirm by pressing OK
- Now you are able to use this SVN user account in step 20
STEP 22: The project is created and automatically stored into the VisualSVN repository.

Let $A$ be a non-empty set and consider $S(A)$ the set of all bijective functions from $A$ to itself, with composition as group operation. Fix $a_0 \in A$. Define $H = \{f \in S(A): f(a_0) = a_0\}$. Prove that $H$ is a subgroup of $S(A)$.
does this tell me $a_0$ is an identity or that $f(a_0)$ is an identity? I am assuming I need to use something to do with subgroup theorems but I am having trouble understanding how to use these.
Ok that makes more sense since $f(a_0)$ = $a_0$ and $g(a_0)$ = $a_0$ we can conclude that $f^{-1}$ $f(a_0)$ = $f^{-1}$ $a_0$ so we know $f^{-1}$ is in the set? So $f^{-1}$ $g(a_0) $= $a_0$ and the by the theorem we may conclude $H$ is a subgroup of G?
As a side note would love to know WHERE you guys find the element signs and how to put subscripts on things if you could link me to a list of stuff you can put into here with some instructions.
Someone has pointed me a direction a few times but i have never found something I understood. I am not a programer but if I can find a lost of things I am sure I can figure it out usually I just search until I find a post with what I want click edit and take the symbols I want but if theirs instructions somewhere I would very much appreciate that.

$H = \{f \in S(A): f(a_0) = a_0\}$ is the set of bijective functions in $S(A)$ such that $f$ maps $a_0$ to $a_0$.
Here, $a_0$ is a fixed element which every bijective function in $S(A)$ that maps $a_0$ to itself is a member. $H$ includes the identity map/function, but not all $f \in H$ are the identity function.
To prove $H$ is a subgroup of $S(A)$:
 - Clearly, $H$ includes as its identity $f_I$, the identity map of $S(A)$, since $f_I(a_0)$ is clearly $a_0$.
 - Now show that for any $f, g \in H$, $f\circ g \in H$: i.e., show that $H$ is closed under the function composition.
 - Show that for any $f \in H, f^{-1} \in H$. Hint: This must be the case, as every $f \in H$ is bijective, and if $f \in H$, then $f^{-1}$ exists, and since $f\in H$, $f(a_0) = a_0$ and $f^{-1}(f(a_0)) = f^{-1}(a_0) = f_I(a_0) = a_0$, since by definition, $f^{-1}\circ f = f_I$, so $f^{-1} \in H$
Then you will have shown $\,H\,$ is a subgroup of $\,S(A)$.
As for your second question (or aside), you might want to visit MathJax/LaTeX: a tutorial and "bookmark" it as a favorite!
share|cite|improve this answer
Hint: To check something is a subgroup, it suffices to show that $H$ is nonempty (this clear since the identity function is an element [why?]), the composition of two functions is an element of the group (also easy to argue since every function fixes $a_0$), and that the inverse of a function is an element of the group (which follows because each element is a bijection).
I leave the details to you, but hopefully with what is given above, you can work through this mostly on your own.
share|cite|improve this answer
The standard way to show that something is a subgroup is to show:
 1. It is nonempty
 2. If $f, g \in H$ then $fg^{-1} \in H$
I'll leave (1) to you and give you a hint for (2). If $f, g \in H$ then you know $f(a_0) = a_0$ and $g(a_0) = a_0$. Apply the function $fg^{-1}$ to $a_0$. The result should be $a_0$ and once you've shown this you can conclude that $fg^{-1} \in H$.

It takes approximately two and a half 750 milliliter bottles to make a half gallon. To get the number of bottles needed to make half a gallon, the gallon has to be converted to milliliters, divided by 2 to get half of it and then divided by the number 750.
One gallon translates to 3,785.41178 milliliters. This means that 1,892.70589 milliliters make half a gallon. Dividing that value with 750 yields the number 2.523607853. Upon rounding the number to two decimals, the result is 2.52, which represents the number of 750 milliliter bottles that are needed to make half a gallon.

Metrotown is an elevated station on the Expo Line of Metro Vancouver's SkyTrain rapid transit system. The station is located in the Metrotown area of Burnaby, British Columbia, Canada. It is the fifth-busiest station in the SkyTrain system. The station is located between Central Boulevard and Beresford Street, east of Willingdon Avenue.
Metrotown station was built in 1985 as part of the original SkyTrain system, on what is now known as the Expo Line. The overhead walkway that led to Metropolis at Metrotown shopping centre was added to the station in 1989. Originally, the bus loop was open-air and connected to the station via an at-grade street crossing.
The station was originally designed as a suburban station serving residential neighbourhoods and local transit connections. It experienced a major traffic increase due to the opening of nearby shopping centres and the redevelopment of the neighbourhood, leading to passenger loads and circulation surpassing the design capacity of the original station.
In 2007, TransLink established plans for a major retrofit and redesign of the station to improve passenger flow and increase station capacity. Construction began in February 2015, with an estimated cost of $55.5 million.
On November 15, 2016, TransLink closed the pedestrian overpass that connected the station to the Metropolis shopping centre. The closure was a result of preparation work required in rebuilding the east stationhouse. No timeline was provided for when a replacement overpass would open. The closure has led to criticism and extra travel time for many passengers.
The centre stationhouse opened to the public on March 24, 2017, and features new stairs and elevators. On July 24, 2017, the west stationhouse opened, featuring four escalators.
The rebuilt east stationhouse opened on March 19, 2018, and—like the west stationhouse—it also features four escalators. Upon completion of the third phase, the station has a total of eight escalators, three elevators as well as stairs to and from platform level.

A simple explicit model approximating the relationship between speed and density of vehicular traffic on urban roads
With the increase in simulation of urban environments for the purpose of planning, modelling vehicular traffic has become important. Since empirical evidence on traffic flow is relatively sparse, models are being increasingly used for planning urban roads and environments. In this paper, a simple, explicit model is proposed to approximate the speed versus density of vehicular traffic flow. The model, which uses two parameters derived from simple measurements of real–time traffic data, allows for a prediction of the approximate relationship for congested as well as uncongested vehicular traffic flow. The proposed model is especially useful in conditions where available data is sparse and can be invaluable for the modelling and simulation of urban environments.

Morocco has harvested an estimated 2 million tons of olives this season, an increase of 28 percent compared to the crop last year.
During his visit to El Attaouia province in El Kelaa des Sraghna, in the Marrakech-Safi region, at the 5th National Fair of the Olive Tree on Saturday, Minister of Agriculture Aziz Akhannouch said that the increase in olive production is due to the "favourable weather conditions."
The olive tree thrives in the Mediterranean climate with yearly temperatures between 15 and 20 degrees Celsius, rainy winters followed by sunny springs, and hot summers.
Akhannouch emphasized the significance of the main fruit tree cultivated in Morocco. A real conscious green effort by the African country. It covers more than 1.07 million hectares, accounting for 65 percent of the tree species in the country.
The olive sector is also a major source of employment, providing 380,000 permanent jobs. Women make up 20 percent of workers in the field.
